Cedar Hill, Texas junior offensive tackle Thomas Ashcraft is used to early visits.

For instance, the 6-foot-5, 280-pounder made his way to a number of camps this past after starting 16 games as a sophomore on a state championship winning team. Right after Sept. 1, Kansas State, Nebraska, Oklahoma, Oklahoma State, Texas A&M, and Texas Tech all sent written scholarship offers to the talented 2009 prospect.
